Installing/Removing SATA Drives
1.
To remove a carrier, push the release button located beside the drive LEDs.
2.
Swing the colored handle fully out and use it to pull the unit straight out (see
Figure 6-5).
Note: There is no onboard RAID support for SATA drives.
SATA Backplane
The SATA drives plug into a backplane that provides power, drive ID and bus termi-
nation. A RAID controller can be used with the backplane to provide data security for
the SATA drives. The backplane is already preconfi gured, so there are no jumpers
or switches present on it.
